Obsession is not an uncommon quirk in the firearms world, and this can be a very good thing. For example, Christian Orr, a veteran, retired law enforcement officer and now an NRA Instructor, became obsessed with the Beretta 92, and now we can all benefit from his fixation in the form of this well-researched book—the second edition of which is now available in Beretta’s 500th year of operation.
In it, you’ll find a history of Beretta, discussion of developments leading to the Model 1951/951 Brigadier, its evolution into the Model 92 and the U.S. military’s adoption of the platform (as the M9) in 1985.
This latest edition adds 93 pages worth of new material over the original book to help celebrate the Model 92’s 50th anniversary, including appendices covering the author’s favorite holsters, cleaning and lubricating supplies and his account of visiting the Beretta USA factory in Gallatin, Tenn.
